I had the pleasure of speaking with Amana Horne from Home Bill Saver about how she has been able to get support from an amazing VA to grow her business. 

Hear about how Amanda: 

-was initially concerned that she would not have enough work for a VA but within a month her VA has become the backbone of her business 

-has built an amazing relationship with her VA where they can both have a laugh (even though she was unsure if she would be a good team leader)

-getting support from her VA in both marketing and operations has freed Amanda up to think creatively and to the stuff that she really wants to be doing in her business.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Graeme Hayward from Uniform image about his journey with his VA Tessa who has been with him for three years. 

He shared: 

• How having Tessa on board has helped him transition from a local to a national business. 

Listen to hear these gems and heaps more. 

When we hire a VA we really want them to stay and grow with us (as that is the most leveraged strategy). 

But with any hiring and people things...there are not guarantees. 

Understanding the three common reasons VA's leave their clients (and how to avoid them) can go along way to ensuring that you have a stable long term team. 

Getting a Virtual Assistant can be exciting! 

BUT you need to make sure that you don't make the one (or more) of common mistakes. 

Join Maureen & Carmen to learn the common VA hiring mistakes and more importantly...how to avoid them. 

Getting a VA can be super exciting.

But you don't want to dive in head first if you are not ready as this just creates more of a mess.

It was a pleasure to interview Damien Lacey, CEO of OE Partners about his experience with his energetic and consistent Virtual Assistant Cristy. 

We cover:

• The things that we are both bad at (and how our VA's do to them way better than us)

It was an insightful conversation. 

Hope you enjoy!

I had the pleasure of interviewing Michael Royal, from BIR finance around his journey with his wonderful Virtual Assistant Anna. 

What I love about his story is the evolution. 

Initially all Michael wanted support around was LinkedIn Marketing. 

But once he had a taste of good support he expanded the role. Anna now supports him with all manner of marketing endeavors and even some operations. 

Tune in to hear how: 

• Having a Virtual Assistant has helped Michael explore more bright and shiny things, some of which have had a great positive impact in his business. 

It was a fascinating conversation and I think you will enjoy it too.

When I first met PJ Ashley the Founder and CEO of The Pillar Code she was concerned that she would not have enough work for a Virtual Assistant. 

Fast forward three years she has two amazing Virtual Assistants (who are kept very busy). 

What impresses me about PJ is how intentional she around communication and creating a great culture enabling her Virtual Assistants to grow and flourish (which intern provides more value to the business). 

Listen to learn: 

• The time efficient ninja strategy that she has implemented on messenger to ensure that she can provide very quick feedback to her team (with minimal effort on her side). 

Wow, so many insights!
